Hiya does anyone know to change this javascript to allow minutes as well as hours. It's a javascript which allows different images to display at different times of the day.
Cheers!!!

Changes are in bold.
I wrote it so that the hours are converted to minutes as well so that you don't have to compare two variables in the comparisons (so 90 would be 1:30am). Add as many if..else statements as you need. Note there are 1440 minutes in a day.
day=new Date() //..get the date
h = day.getHours()*60; //get the hour
m = day.getMinutes(); //get the minutes
time = h + m; //total minutes
if(time<90) { // 1:30AM
document.write('<body background="put your first image file name here such as 1.jpg">')
} else if(time<540) { //9:00 am
document.write('<body background="put your second image file name here such as 2.jpg">')
} else if(time<930) { // 3:30 pm
document.write('<body background="put your third image file name here such as 3.jpg">')
} else {
document.write('<body background="put your last image file name here such as 4.jpg">')
}

I don't know that you can do that automatically. The script is client-side, so it is generating the time based upon the user's computer. Unless you know what time zone the user is in, you can't adjust for UTC.
